Arda Mod

wow ! finally an huge Tolkien-based mod ! ive been looking for something like this for ages... i tried to make a first age mod, but had to drop the whole thing, but i still got some ideas. here's one : how about making a wonder called Vingilot and when its built, the army of the Valar come to help you ?
 
Quite frankly, I would commit suicide if we added that to the mod, seriously.

Glad you like this so far, welcome and stay tuned.
 
lol, well, having the whole army of the Valar would be unbalanced... so i believe the idea probably won't make it to the mod... however we appreciate your interest in the mod :)
 
I don't even want to think about designing Maias and Valar... We just can't design them, it simply won't look good since we don't really have any good descriptions of what they looked like. That's mostly why I don't like the idea. ;)
 
Well, my holidays are over, so i won't be able to participate in the developmente of the mod as much as i did... NaU has been busy lately, and Shqype too... so we aren't working in the mod... but we will resume work as soon as possible, don't worry ;) , it won't take long (i hope so :) )
 
Is this mod still under development? I've been following this thread since it started, but it's been a week since the last post.

First Age.................Second Age..........Third Age

Edain......................Numenor..............Gondor
Angband.................Dol Guldur............Mordor
Utumno...................Gundabad.............Moria
Gondolin.................Rivendell..............Mithlond
Cuivienen.................Doriath...............Lothlorien
Khand.......................Umbar...............Harad
Blue Mountains........Khazad-Dûm.........Erebor
Hildórien...................Balchoth...............Rhûn
Lothlann...................Dunland...............Isengard
???????....................Éothéod...................Rohan

First, the Edain spread out and became all of the "men" cultures (Rohan, Gondor, Easterlings, Southrons, Corsairs). So where you currently have "???????" it would be another Edain. Second, near the end of the First Age are you going to have the left half of Middle Earth sink like it did in "real" LOTR? Ok, I would be very willing to be involved with ideas, testing, and some of the actual modding. I did create a fully functional LOTR mod for CIV III and would be willing to lend my experience with modding and LOTR to this great mod.

NEW_Rome
 
Wrong, the edain are only the three clans of men that ever made it to Beleriand. However, the rohirrim and northmen were of the same kin, but they were not edain. It's like... Umm... The Sindar-Greenelves situation, kind of.
 
Well, i know it's been a while since the last update... but i'm sick now... and therefore i cannot work on the mod, also i have talked not too much with the other members of the team, oh, and NEW_Rome, if you are willing to join the team PM me with your MSN adress so we can discuss it with the other members...

Guys, I'm waiting to begin work on this mod. I know that NAU and Morboth have been busy lately, but I'm busy as well and want to continue this mod. Let's re-assemble the team and bang it out!
 
The real strategy comes in the form of as follows: Should I stick with my Numenorian Knights that are more powerful, or go for Gondor Soldiers, though weaker will be more for my money. Some factions, like East Tribes -> Balchoth -> Rhun, won't really have this problem as this faction simply improves its gear over the years.

Can't you just obsolete units from the older ages, since they do after all belong in that specific age right? Why make it possible to build something from the first age, in the third age?

Unless those units were available in the lotr lore.
